Ripping Rugby
Our 13s braved the chilly conditions in Orange on Saturday to take on Orange City, the cold climate had no effect on the Redbacks who showed no mercy for their opponents racking up 28 points to seven in the first half and going on to record a 45 to seven victory even though the game was called off early because of the sleeting rain and wind.
Liam Byrnes scored a hat trick including a 90 metre effort and even with half the Orange squad on his tail the big prop could not be reeled in.
Will Deshon also revelled in the conditions ripping into the Orange attack with with some crackin defence as well as scoring two tries for the day.
Our 15s teed off against Dubbo Red in Dubbo in what turned out to be a game of two contrasting halves the Red Boars dominated from the start with both of our tries being scored by the Parkes boys in our squad.
The first try came when our big front rower Jayden Pope barged over from close range for his first try of the year.
The second came just before half time when Kody Reynolds applied some silky soccer skills to kick the ball ahead three times before diving on it to score giving the Boars a 12 nil lead at the break.
Dubbo came out firing and unfortunately the party was over, two very well constructed tries leveled the score and a penalty shot right on the bell gave them the win 15 points to 12.
Our 17s followed on also against the Reds but could not recreate the same form that they had shown the previous week when they rolled the Dubbo Blues.
The Redbacks trailed ten nil at half time but could not claw their way back in the second half. A consolation try kept them in the game but it was not enough leaving Dubbo with a 17 to five victory. No junior rugby for the next two weeks due to school holidays
